Fig. 3 Maximal power output and peak oxygen consumption.
Main Outcome Measures: Peak oxygen consumption (Vo2peak), peak power output, and 12-minute wheelchair propulsion (12WCP).
Peak oxygen consumption (Vo2max) was also used to evaluate the functional status of patients with IDC.
Also compared was the prognostic value of echocardiographic variables versus peak oxygen consumption (Vo2).
Secondary end points will include changes in mitral regurgitation, peak oxygen consumption, and natriuretic peptide levels.
To explore the physiological factors affecting exercise-induced changes in peak oxygen consumption and function poststroke.
Secondary end points include changes in peak oxygen consumption and other exercise parameters as well as quality-of-life indicators.
Energy expenditure was assessed again prior to commencing approximately 30 minutes of treadmill exercise at 65% peak oxygen consumption.
Moreover, intradialytic exercise can improve solute removal, dialysis adequacy, intradialytic protein synthesis, muscular strength, peak oxygen consumption, nutritional status, and quality of life.
After 3 months of training, rowing distance increased by 25% (P<.02), peak oxygen consumption by 11.2% (P<.001), and peak oxygen pulse by 11.4% (P<.01).
VO2peak, peak oxygen consumption; ALT, alanine aminotransferase.
